Via Gizmodo, Leigi Matsumoto of Space Battleship Yamato, Captain Harlock, Galaxy Express 999, etc has designed a real life water taxi. Very cool.

I’ve been slowly going through my site and closing up old comment threads to prevent more spam (I’m sure there is a plugin that would do automatically do this for me), but I think I will leave the comments for this entry on Peach Girl open because of the impassioned debate about who Momo should end up with, Toji or Kiley. So far the vote is split.

I haven’t read any Peach Girl beyond the first volume, I try not to get sucked in to the high school romance genre unless I find it really compelling. Especially for the super-long series that run over 10 volumes, it is more of a time committment/availability at the local library issue for me than anything else. For whatever reason, I liked Mars and Kare Kano much more than Peach Girl, and I’ve read most of the volumes of those series that have come out so far.
